Under the Wire: The true story of death, friendship and rebellion in Syria's most dangerous city
Autor Paul Conroyen Limba Engleză Paperback – 6 sep 2018
'Unrelentingly gripping' New York Times
In February 2012, determined to cover the realities of the brutal Syrian regime under Assad, veteran photographer Paul Conroy and celebrated journalist Marie Colvin smuggled themselves across enemy lines and into the blood and terror of Homs.
But tragedy struck before the pair could finish documenting the slaughter. A rocket killed Colvin and ripped a hole in Conroy's leg. As Syrian ground forces closed in on his position, Conroy was forced to make a terrifying last-ditch attempt to escape from a regime that appeared determined to murder him, just as it had so many of its own citizens.
Under the Wire is the epic, untold account of Conroy and Colvin's friendship amid their last, tragic assignment together - but it is also a tale of the courage, rebellion and survival of people living in the carnage of war.
